RIP Mocha
18 years ago
Well...now that I've calmed down about it a bit...I guess I can say it. Though seeing her pictures on here, and just thinking about announcing it will just make it more real...it sucks. First the bullshit with my mate, and now this...
Well my baby Mocha (http://www.furaffinity.net/view/350193/ and http://www.furaffinity.net/view/350192/) was killed oh about five days ago now I think...I've sort of lost track of time lately. There was a stray pitbull wandering around the town, from nobody knows where, and it decided to snap the neck of my loving little fluffball. I raised her from a kitten! For five years she was my little butt-hat as I slept! Good news is the dog was caught and euthenized, bad news is it did get another cat a few blocks away first. I've had pets die before, and I've had my mom dump about ten cats, two of which I was VERY attached to at the pound, overnight, without tellin' anyone. Makes me angry. But my Mocha...to know she didn't even get a second chance with anyone, she was still my kitty, and she was murdered!
And please, don't read this and think I hate pits! I don't! I have met some nice dogs in my life, and some of the nicest were pits! I just hate that particular dog for what it did. It could have even been a corgi, my favorite kind of doggy, and I'd still have hated the damn thing! Okay. I'm done...

Feel bad for the pitbull. Some dick obviously never took proper care of them. At least now pets AND people are safe.
I tried to keep her as an indoor cat, but the man my mom was with at the time we got her got annoyed when she'd meow and tossed her out so much she started to like being outdoors. Then they broke up and we moved, and she'd find ways to sneak out of this house, broken basement window, tearing screens, darting out whenever someone opened the door. It was pointless to try and keep her in when she so badly wanted out...
And man, what a douche. Too bad that she got a taste for it -- understandable that you couldn't keep her in.. such a horrible way to go (I lost a cat to a dog when I was younger, too). *hugs*
I love all animals, and wouldn't wish any harm on them in almost any case, but I dunno. That dog just makes me angry. Killing just to kill, not to eat...
Last summer, on my last day of highschool as I was walkign home, a car just peeled out of a driveway fast as could be, took the corner, sped past me, then I heard a thunk...and then a lot more thunks. Turned around and there were two kittens convulsing on the pavement...they were up somewhere under the car...and musta snapped their necks...blood was pouring from their noses...and I just couldn't look away, I was frozen in horror...
I'm sorry to startle you so badly...heheh. I just loved my kitty.
And thank you.
From rumors we heard in my old neighborhood, my family was not well liked, my cat Tom was killed by a Pit Bull. We never found his body but I accepted his death some time ago. But stories like this piss me off.
So my feelings about the dog breed in general are mixed. I generally end up blaming the owners who teach them to be mean and to attack other living beings.
I know how you feel a little, I am sorry this had to happen to you as well.
Its just two bad things piled up just two weeks apart. My mate up and leaving...and the kitty who was cheering me up getting killed way before I was even starting to get over it...
If you were within driving distance I'd so say yes. But also there are other things...like my mom loosing her house, me needing to move out..I don't even know for sure I can keep a pet...but I'd have fought and done sneaky things to have kept my Mocha.
Thank you sweetie.
Thanks for the luck wishing! I think I'll really need it during these upcoming months! *nuzzles*
I know it'll get better. I've had many down times before, even if they weren't quite as bad as this may seem. I know I used to keep myself down, then I learned to let go enough to let myself get back up. It just takes a little while for my emotions to settle down. *curls her own long lemur tail about the coon, cooing quietly*
Yes, I did read through your journals...though as the bad person I am didn't comment. Though that does sound a shitty thing to do to someone...I'm guilty of disappearing on internet friends once in a while myself. Though not because of a game or anything, but because sometimes we can't afford internet, and because I've moved three times in the past two years, so I've gone a few months without internet, sometimes unexpectedly. I always feel really bad about it though.
Well there were probably a few problems outside the game, but could never get them to talk about whatever might be bothering them to fix things. I know few relationships are lacking the occasional problem but generally you talk them out and work on them because they aren't such a big deal and easily enough fixed. What you don't do is ignore the attempts then hold it against someone because they don't just know why you're upset, especially when all you have to go by is text. :(
I know I'm not perfect but I try to forgive and work things out, but with them I'm just not going to accept that I was in the wrong, they were. Never told me anything I might have been doing wrong, probably doing stuff they thought pleased me but didn't them so came around less because of it, then vanishing as a thief in the night to avoid any drama rather than talk things out or at least give me closure. That's being selfish in the extreme, for someone who supposedly cared about me so much, and showed no concern at all for my feelings.
